He charges that it was ttie result of a house to house can- vuss among , the negroes night and day just before the eleotion by repub lican agents, men who are drawing pay from the government. Uro. Johnson says he accepts the result gracefully, with “charity for all and malice ugainst none.” Jlnt Uro. Johnson draws a great amount of consolation from Georgia’s 70,000 majority.

The Gazettb extracts, from a private letter, the following election statistics und words of advice from Worth county; “For governor—Northen, 971, Peek, 002; Northcn’s majority, 303. “For senator—Wooten 979, Pick ett 018; Wooten’s majority, 303. “For representudvo—Sumner 982, Kctcheiis, 039; Sumner’s majority, 343.” The writer then continues: “J buve seen several people’s par ty lenders since the election und nev er in all my life saw such sad faces. I have no heart to rejoice or laugh at their sadness; but 1 can hurrah for democracy, i have seen several who suy thut they intended all the time to vote for Cleveland in No- be,. “We must now enter at once into the congressional campaign and strive to elect Russell by a larger majority. "My advice to all is not to guy or fret those who voted against us oil Wednesday, but go to work on them in u kind und friendly way to get buck into the democratic ranks. I think wc cun gain many votes from them witli projier management.” The writer bus struck tlio proper keynote of the campaign from from now until tho 8th day of November. Nothing will be gained by democrats twitting the deceived and defeated third, purtyites too strongly.' There is plenty of room for argument re maining in the bosom of our deluded friends, und we still have confidence them sulllcient to believe thut they will yet listen to tlio voice of reason, and decide the political ques tions agitating tlio people in the fear of God and in harmony witli the best interest of the masses. Howovcr, if they are not yet con vinced what is the will of' the great majority of this people; if they arc still not satisfied to be democratic, shibboleth und consent i.hut tlie imi- ority shill! rule then leave them quietly to thontselves. Time, isola tion and reflection will strfcly work out their redemption. Again, by pursuing this course to- wurd our deceived fellow-citizens, who ure Becking fitmnoiul relief at the end of the rainbow, you have nothing to regret when they begin to come buok—for they are coming back, everyone of them! You can then take them by tho hand with the satisfied consciousness that you have done them no hurt. Ijct our democratic friends remem ber that -"a soft answer turneth away wrath,” but on the contrary, harsh words begot resentment. It was hu man nature in the days of Solomon uttd it is tlm same to-day as it was then. Gentle persuasion has con quered more Blubbom spirits than denunciation und villifloation. Democrats be manly and discreet! —t- THIS SPACE BELONGS TO— E. P. BOWEN & BRO. DEALERS IN — ; Greneral Merchandise.
